Evаluаte the given sоurce using аt least three elements оf the “CRAAP Test.” Yоur response should be in the form of an 8-12 sentence paragraph! Are teachers proficient in the use of technology in the teaching/learning environment? The best indicator to measure proficiency is some form of performance measure based on clear and reasonable criteria. Two efforts are presented that address, respectively, the criteria to be employed and the measurement approach. The first is the national standards established by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), the Standards for Basic Endorsement in Educational Computing and Technology Literacy. These standards specify a desired performance profile for technology-literate teachers. Schools and districts can examine these performance standards to determine measures of teacher skills with technology. The assessment could be through portfolio-based ratings of teachers for a selection of performance areas. A sample performance area requirement from the ISTE standards is presented after the indicators for this question. The second approach comes from Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) of Virginia. They have determined eight teacher technology competencies, divided into two competency skill areas: operational (standards 1-4) and integration (standards 5-8). Operational Standards Instructional personnel shall be able to: Demonstrate effective use of a computer system and utilize computer software. Apply knowledge of terms associated with educational computing and technology. Apply computer productivity tools for professional use. Use electronic technologies to access and exchange information. Integration Standards Instructional personnel shall be able to: Identify, locate, evaluate, and use appropriate instructional hardware and software to support the Virginia Standards of Learning and other instructional objectives. Use educational technologies for data collection, information management, problem solving, decision making, communication, and presentation within the curriculum. Plan and implement lessons and strategies that integrate technology to meet the diverse need of learners in a variety of educational settings. Demonstrate knowledge of ethical and legal issue relating to the use of technology. [Reprinted with permission from Fairfax County Public Schools.
